Fishing for Energy

Fishing for Energy launched in 2008 through a partnership among Covanta Corporation, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Debris Program, and Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc. to provide a cost-free solution to fishermen to dispose of old, derelict (gear that is lost in the marine environment) or unusable fishing gear and to reduce the amount of derelict fishing gear in and around coastal waterways.
